I can't seem to find anywhere to pre-order the note edge. I want a contract-free unlocked phone.

I did it at www.clove.co.uk .
I don't know in wich country you are living in but ask them about the region lock thing, they should be able to unlock it for you if this is the case.
Cheers~
How much are they charging? Or is it just a waiting list. I emailed them asking about dates, prices, and lock. Will update when I get a reply.
Any other shops out there?
541,67 pounds (~886 US dollars ) excluding taxes and shipping.

I hope it is that soon.
I live in the US. I know that the Note 4 will be coming out in October of this year.
Then they said the note edge will be released before the end of this year. I did read somewhere that the Canada release was going to be the bring of 2015 and it would be after the US launch.
either way I am getting this phone ASAP.
Just pre ordered the black version of Edge from Clove in UK. Hope Samsung releases the phone soon.
Preordering in Romania
Hi there!
In Romania you can preorder the 64 gb version on quickmobile.ro at a price of about 1.000 euros!!!!
A bit too much if you ask me! (taxes included).
Lol isn't that too much must be an error
I saw this ebay ad for a Galaxy Note Edge pre-order for £559 with est delivery for 28 October to 4t Nov.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171485130761?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&fromMakeTrack=true
Seems a bit doggy - title was misleading, it says Galaxy Note 4 Edge. So I asked the following questions:
1. Can you confirm it's the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 or the Galaxy Note Edge you're selling? It's confusing because the title says Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Edge.
2. Is this UK or International version?
3. Are you selling the 32GB or 64GB model?
4. Since this is a pre order, what are your policy on cancellation?
Got this reply back:
Hi
Follow the below link ..
www.samsung.com/uk/GalaxyNote4
2GB RAM+16GB ROM
Product is full uk spec version.
1 year warranty

Now I am convinced its doggy!
But aren't the international versions lacking the proper LTE bands? I really don't want to spend that much $ and not get LTE!
anybody tried yatango? it says here in the article they have it omg

Hi guys,
I am considering buying this from Japan via internet, I wanted to know the following:
If Samsung releases updates firmware, will I be able to update the phone?
Is there anything else I need to watch out for?
Many thanks in advance.
how much are they selling in japan and doesnt the back cover come with those branded japanese telecom companies?

I saw them on ebay for $999.
And yes they will have the branding on the battery back.
And some wont have the LTE since the US uses a different brand for it.
Its best to just wait till he hits your area and buy it then.

Yep, its the one on ebay. I asked seller some questions about it working in UK, they replied back saying it won't work on all carriers. I will probably have to give up on that one.
The problem is no one has even the faints of idea when it would come to UK. I don't want to wait for months. Might force myself to buy the Note 4.

Waiting is better then giving in for something you don't want or spending money on something that might not work for you.
When they had talk about the note 4 I wasn't to much in to it.
I had an s2 for a very long time. Everybody ask when I was going to upgrade to the s3. But i didnt want it since it wasn't that big of a difference. Then the htc one m7 came out so I got that since it was a bigger upgrade for me.
then I got the note 3 from there.
And I know how samsung does things and knew it wouldn't be a big leap. From my note 3 to the note 4.
But then I hear about the edge and I've been waiting that phone since they show the tech demo last year.
So Yea wait for what you really want. Or you could rock the note 4 and sell it when the edge is released in your area.
or you can blow a hole in your wallet and buy both haha

Thanks for you advice. I agree with what you're saying, I know I'll never be entirely happy and will always be looking out for the Edge. But not knowing when, if ever it will come to my country is the problem.
Avenging,
Wish I could buy both but that won't happen.
I think I'll get N4 now and sell it off as soon as the Edge becomes available.
I have been to the Jarir bookstore here in khurais road but still no news of incoming nexus 6. Its kinda sad, im hoping to get the item upon getting my month end salary but the longer i wait, the more im inclined to buy note 4 which is already available at the jarir store. Anyone else here in Saudi waiting for the nexus 6? My guess the pricing will be around 2500 SR.

Hi there, I'm from Riyadh, I too, also patiently waiting for the Nexus 6 to arrive here. Unfortunately it's not available yet. Maybe we have to wait until December. =( But I think it's worthy to wait, I don't kinda like the touchwiz software of the note4, pure stock vanilla android lollipop is the best. I wish the price will just be around 2000sr. =)
From Dubai
Waiting for this to be released in dubai. Many online Sites have it listed as coming soon but no prices. And Nexus 9 went on sale this week in Jumbo Electronics. :fingers-crossed:

I hear you man. I broke my Nexus 4 last night, screen completely shattered. Don't want to buy Nexus 5 from Jarir, so I'm gonna stuck with my old SGSII for a while till the Nexus 6 is available. Using Touchwiz after using pure stock android is a drawback.
Finger crossed they'll make it available soonish.
I went back to jarir and as of today, still no word of any nexus 6 shipping. The good thing is hopefully we wont be getting the faulty first batch of nexus 6. I see alot complaints already like peeling nexus logo, flimsy speaker grill and scratched back cover.
any news on the availability of this phone? my phone screen broke yesterday, and now I need a new phone
I need this phone now

I don't recommend asking in Almursalat area, it is better to support official channels like STC, Mobily... etc,. This way, demand on devices will guarantee fast availability on newly released devices. Unofficially, however, I'm sure that imported devices from the UK for example are available, but I wont take it with no warranty and no guarantee on full network support.
In STC magazine, the Nexus 6 was posted as a "Coming Soon" device, Most likely in the upcoming month or two, on and off contract. The prices were not announced but I'm guessing, based on previous releases like the nexus 5, that it will be around the official US price of $650 (USD).
I hope I was thorough in answering your question.
you can buy it on amazon uk. Yes, it's expensive when converting £ to SR, but this the only way now or you can wait 1-3 months. I've already paid 4173 SR (incl. tax) for nexus 6 64gb model XT1100 (LTE works in saudi arabia).

Nexus 6 Saudi Arabia
Still Jarir people are refusing to even comment on the availability of nexus 6. The point is this that why Jarir, extra and similar stores are so lazy in bringing some devices to the market in Saudi Arabia. Even they had very limited stocks of Note 4, it came and it disappeared very quickly even in Riyadh.
In Mursalat I went today and no availability of Nexus 6 there too. Anybody knows tentative launch of nexus 6 via STC?
you can search dubizzle. there is a guy offering new nexus 6 as per his speech (i think these phones are shipped to him from US or EUROPE unofficially) . if you decided to go for it ... let us know

Good News!
I'm happy to bring you the good news!! STC just released Nexus 6, exclusively, through their channels.
The price tag is SR2799 off contract with limited 1 year warranty. On-contract, however, STC is offering a whole system that depends on your "rating" and "rank" in the company's records. Call STC to know what criteria you fall under.
I would add the link to the device but I don't have that privilege, being a new user, to add links in the forum.
However, navigate to STC's website, go to devices and you'll find it in the newly added devices section, you can't miss it.
I hope you find this post helpful, have a good one.

A 64 Gb wifi only re manufactured for $520 today on groupon. The deal will be gone monday
Excellent price! I lucked out and bought a 64 GB Note Pro refurbished via eBay for $550 a few months back.
Just picked up the att LTE version (32gb) refurb for $380, I'm excited to see what can be done.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/171630973285
I just "pre-ordered" P905 since the cheapest shop here doesn't have available stocks (it probably didn't sell well here). I hope to get it in a week. Hopefully my accessories (keyboard, micro sdxc and ethernet) arrive early.
I have bought 64gb wifi about a month ago for £324 from PC World UK
I picked my Verizon 32gb version for $293.50. I just rooted this. So excited to start using this.
Those prices make my wallet ache... I paid €820 for mine.. ($869, £588) (A year ago, but alas.)

I paid $850 for my SM-P905 about a year ago and i'm pleased it has retained its value very well. Prices from reputable sellers start at about $700. Only a $150 deprecation after being a year old, is good news to my wallet. Especially when i decide to sell it and upgrade.
I'm very tempted to pick up one of these, I currently have a note 10.1 (2012 edition) and was planning on getting the 2014 edition but then I found out about this note pro 12.2. The extra screen size is certainly appealing, what's everyone's opinion on this tablet, is it worth getting, I understand there's a 2015 edition in the works but then again I doubt I could afford the price of that if and when it's released where as the current 12.2 costs hardly anymore than what the 10.1 2014 edition costs that I was looking at purchasing initially.

I got my wifi 64GB 12.2 tablet for $430... and the matching keyboard cover for 39.99 ($190 off the tablet, $60 off the keyboard) at the local BJ's. I was not in the market, but this was too good to pass...
Should I get one now or wait?
Do you think there will be a 2015 version of the note pro?
I just bought mine for $410 on Monday. I'm blown away by how fantastic this device is. I decided to buy it as a 'laptop replacement' which I was somewhat cautious to do given my so-so experience with Android tablets in the past (I love Android on phones but the tablet experience hasn't been great). In any case, it's fantastic.

I'm wondering the same thing Luis, but I don't think I'm going to wait. I actually bought the AT&T LTE variant used off of eBay last month and loved the device. Unfortunately, it wasn't in the supposed "Like New" condition the seller claimed and the battery life was pretty horrid. So that one's on the way back to the seller for a refund and I'm planning to buy one brand new from AT&T using the Next plan. Hoping Lollipop will arrive stateside sooner rather than later.
It's really sad seeing all of my Note Pro accessories on a shelf with no Note Pro to use them on... :crying:
I just bought a new 64GB WiFi version for USD $500.00.
After getting the LG G Pad 7 for a buck with my G3, I'm spoiled on data enabled tablets. I don't think I'll ever be able to settle for a wifi tablet again.
I've changed my old iPad 1 32GB WiFi Only with Note pro 12.2 LTE giving only 100€ to prev owner! :good:
It's a fantastic tablet!
And today is updated to Lollipop via ota!!

If there is, it will cost over $800. So it's up to you if you want to spend that much more money to have the latest tech.
Hi
This morning ( http://www.knowyourmobile.com/samsu...axy-note-5-release-date-specs-prices-features ) and recently I've read a couple of articles suggesting the note 5 under the N920F model number could be landing in the UK in January.
I've ordered a grey from MyGSM.ME but not yet paid for it as it is out of stock. So I'm in a dilemma - do I wait or take a grey (told it should be available in 2/3 days). Coming from a note 4 which works fine, think I may wait...
If anyone has any updates on the new that UK will receive the Note 5 - stick any updates here guys !!!

Well, it´s a roumor - and gadgette revised their wording. Lets see....don´t think it will happen.
If Samsung would offer an S6+ without edge, I would take that aswell. But the edge is terrible. It distorts the image and shifts colors around the edges...
Not sure if its worth waiting for uk version as it will be quite expensive, not worth it. Bought N9200 dual sim and both EE and 3 4g coverage works only cost me 450.00 which is about right.
I'm doubtful it will ever happen. If it does it'll be just 6 months before the note 6 and all you gain is security of a local warranty. I'd rather start using the phone today.

Same here - also, I think in no way will the phone be offered under 600€. So, pretty much any import is cheaper at the moment.
They screwed up big time - if the note 6 will add an SD card slot again my note 5 will be gone instantly anyway.
and if they do the same as they did this time with no UK launch?? That's why I bought the n5, especially after trying the Priv and returning it. The n5 is like a polished (literally!) n4 which I got bored of.

Hey!
I have been using Android phones for the past 4 years, starting out with the 2013 Moto G 1st Gen and then upgrading through to a OnePlus One and LG G4. I now have a Lenovo ZUK Z2 Plus of which i've owned since November 2016. I'm currently looking to swap this phone for something else and have decided that the ZTE Axon 7 is my best bet, as i'm after something with a 5.5" AMOLED display and front-facing stereo speakers; whilst keeping the price within a tight budget of around £250 GBP.
The problem is that the Axon 7 is not sold here in the UK, with only the Axon 7 Mini being available in the shops; meaning that i'd have to purchase one from China and have it imported into the country. I would like to buy the 128GB/6GB version but there don't seem to be many of this variant available for purchase within budget. Currently the cheapest prices i've found are approximately £285 for the 128GB/4GB version and £245 for the 64GB/4GB model on Banggood and AliExpress.
With the Axon 8 presumably approaching within the next few months, it's possible that the prices of the Axon 7 will start to drop on these websites. However in the meantime while we wait, does anyone know of any current deals/offers on this handset from China?
Thanks!
you answered the question yourself in your thread. Go buy, I did. No regrets at all.

Thanks for the responses, haha. I guess it would still be a good deal to just buy the phone at the current prices, since it represents such good value for money! I noticed that Banggood also sent me a discount code for 10% off which can be used until the 19th July, but i don't think it can be used on the 128GB version because it's already in their sale and you can't combine discount offers... It does however mean £27 discount off the 64GB model. Maybe i'll wait another month until the voucher is about to expire, just to see whether the Axon 8 is announced.
try topcashback and quidco. they are offering 8% cashback. I did this for my 128gb from Ali express

Oh, excellent thinking! I actually used TopCashback when i bought my ZUK Z2 from Banggood back in November, but haven't been on the website since and so i'd completely forgotten about it. The cheapest Axon 7 on AliExpress is around £245 for the 64GB model, so minus a further 7.87% cashback would make it approximately £225. Very tempting!
Ideally the 128GB version would have been better but i'm not sure it's worth spending the additional money considering it's a +1 year old device and there's always the MicroSD slot available. Hopefully there's no import/customs charges on shipping to the UK as i'll never have ordered from AliExpress before. (I managed to avoid the taxes on my ZUK Z2 from Banggood by choosing the free shipping method!) The only thing i'm worried about with this phone is the sudden influx of reports surrounding the 'shaky camera' issue. I assume the warranty will be almost non-existent when ordering from these Chinese websites?
no import charges on mine. I've noticed that the gold version is quite a bit cheaper. I wanted the grey. only thing to watch out for will be the fact that the seller will have rooted the phone to install Google play store and services. this isn't necessary. you'll need to download the build from ZTE (look elsewhere on this forum of how to do this). After that you'll receive the regular OTA updates first.

Thanks for all your assistance. I'm about 95% convinced at this point that the Axon 7 is the perfect device for me. Both colours seem nice but i'm slightly more tempted by the gold one, since all my previous devices have been black in colour which has become incredibly boring. Also, it would be nice to stand out from the crowd a little. The procedure with flashing the ZTE ROM sounds very familiar as the same thing was necessary with my ZUK Z2. It came with a Banggood 'shop ROM' that couldn't be updated via OTA to the latest version. I had to download Qualcomm Flash Image Loader onto my laptop and flash the latest firmware to the device manually.
The Axon 8 is perhaps only a few months away but i'm pretty sure it won't come anywhere near my budget. Ideally i'm looking to spend as little money as possible, and the Axon 7 ticks all the boxes with the exception maybe of an IR blaster. Unless the Axon 8 came in at under £350 for the 64GB version it simply wouldn't be a viable option. I wouldn't see the full benefits of a SD835 either since my usage consists only of basic web browsing and media consumption.
honestly don't worry. I'm on nova launcher and the phone flies. No lag at all. spigen rugged armour case is the way to go. you can even get Google assistant working using the home button. it's originally only configured for zte voice.
This phone is a game changer for ZTE and for "budget phones". The only thing that's lacking is the camera and it's not /that/ bad. It's just not top of the line but it works for the money I paid for it ($285 used). The stock rom is fine. It works, I don't like how slow the notifications come in and a few other quirks. Root it, but a LOS variant rom on it and be done with it. You won't be disappointed.
I bought mine at www.eudirect.shop - it was some 50 EUR cheaper than ordering directly from China and paying customs & tax. Still took almost three weeks to arrive.
